Partitioning automata (PA) are de ned. They are equivalent to cellular automata (CA). Reversible sub-classes are also equivalent. A simple, reversible and universal partitioning au...
The minimal deterministic finite automaton is generally used to determine regular languages equality. Using Brzozowski's notion of derivative, Antimirov and Mosses proposed a...
We give faster algorithms for two methods of reducing the number of states in nondeterministic finite automata. The first uses equivalences and the second uses preorders. We deve...
Weighted finite automata (WFA) are used with FPGA accelerating hardware to scan large genomic banks. Hardwiring such automata raises surface area and clock frequency constraints,...

We consider the equivalence problem for labeled Markov chains (LMCs), where each state is labeled with an observation. Two LMCs are equivalent if every finite sequence of observat...
